This release follows Chantal's earlier musical odysseys, including 'Let Your Hands Be My Guide' (2013), 'The Sparkle in Our Flaws' (2015), 'Bounce Back' (2017), 'Puwawau' (2019) and 'Saturday Moon' (2021). 'Silently Held' comes to life with the collaborative brilliance of accomplished musicians, including Bill Frisell, with his beautiful understanding of Chantal's flow of melody; Eric Thielemans who brings his percussive mastery to the mix; Jozef Dumoulin playing the piano with immense calmth; Thomas Morgan who seems to be picking magic out of the skies with his bass and Shahzad Ismaily, whose golden touch as a multi-instrumentalist contributes to the album's rich texture; Colin Stetson, renowned for his avant-garde saxophone work but also his work for Bon Iver, who lends his unique voice, creating moments of emotive intensity; and Joachim Badenhorst, Niels Van Heertum and Kurt Van Herck who finish the album with their beautiful brass.
